This workshop offers deepening in Tantra practising Tantric and kundalini yoga exercises and sadhana . Elements of Tantric bodywork and massage will be teached. We get sensitive and feel our physical body as well as the subtle energies and emotions inside in dancing a solo, a duo or dancing in a group . Extensive dance in the space and rather acrobatic elements of CI alternate with sensing the inner stream and energies in the body! We listen to ourselves, each other and listen to the dynamic and organic music of our dance.
Live music is an important element is this workshop. Günter Touschek with his live music is in a dialogue with the participants/dancers and the participants/dancers wit him. We practise dance and touch as meditation, which facilitates transpersonal and spiritual experiences.
The base of meeting, encoutering is: To sense myself, to sense my physical body and the subtle emotions and energies inside, to be aware of my personal personal boundaries, limits and taboos and to look at them in a loving way. In each moment you decide whether you respect them in a loving way or experiment with them or transcend them.
For fully surrendering in a dance, a meeting, I have to be sure that my limits are respected by the other(s). The workshop situation itsself provides a safe place, but it's very important, to let my dance partner know, what feels fine for me and what goes beyond my limits. If there is something in the touch or the dance, which I don't want in that moment,I let my dance partner know in a way that doesn't hurt. That's a good base for fully giving myself to the dance , the meetings in the dance, a base for being open for surprises and amazement instead of planing anything in the dance.
To go to a place, where both of us, don't know what will happen; that's a description of a CI duo at its best , a duo, in which I might have transpersonal experiences.
This might also be a description of sex at its best, but in this workshop we focuss on sensitization and dance in its sensual and erotic dimension but not on sex.
There will be a massage ritual two by two, which leads into a dance.
None of the heteronormativity of classical Tantra!
